I know it's not Surf related but am looking for experience/thoughts with this - is it too good to be true???

If it is legit will I end up with an IPod in Chinese language only?

Unlikely to be legit, the guy has never sold anything before. You will also have to pay the tax on it, so factor that in. Call it £120 in total, from a seller with no feedback, no guarantee and a possibility it won't work (I can't imagine why it wouldn't work all across the world, but you never know) and that's all a little too risky for me. And I'll buy any old sh1t.

Oops!

Thanks Sancho!

I just investigated a little deeper;

The guy has a 100% 12 feedback rating but as Sancho says he ain't sold anything. In fact when you look at the items he's bought every one of them cost 1p! and they were all bought in the last 2 days!

DOH!!! - too good to be true then!

I hadn't bothered looking to see what he'd bought

He's registered in Sweden too.....

Came through the normal post in a jiffy bag, no tax to pay, the seller ticked the box marked 'gift'


It works fine, uploads fine, charges from the mains or USB, only 1gb but thats plenty just for jogging.
Only downside, is the cr4p sounding earphones that were supplied with it.
A quick trip to Maplins and a quality set bought for £13.99 and all is fine an dandy.


Oh, and you'll need a 2.5mm to 3.5mm earphone adaptor if you want to upgrade to decent earphones.

Looks dodgy as h311 to me - registered in Sweden but shipping from China????

u can get the new 8 gig ones from John lewis for £129- no risk, good service and usually extended warrenty for free.
